Field of Interest

I am committed to providing students with a most motivating, challenging, and rewarding journey into the realm of teaching. It truly is a reciprocal journey as my students generate these responses within me as well. In Education of the Heart, Thomas Moore writes “…education is the art of enticing the soul to emerge from its cocoon, from its coil of potentiality and its cave of hiding. Education is not the piling on of learning, information, data, facts, skills, or abilities…but is rather a making visible what is hidden as a seed.” I am appreciative that Felician College affords me the opportunity to uncover and nurture the seed within our School of Education students.
